Sorry for posting this here...

I have just finished installing the base system.  When I reboot, my / is read-only and /boot doesn't seems to be mount properly (not mount at all).  Does anyone experience this problem?

Thanks.

/boot isn't mounted unles you do it yourself explicitly; this is a feature 
not a bug, so that your kernels/boot info can' be harmed by anything that 
happens to the rest of your system.

Since / is read-only, it indicates that something's not going right in
startup. Did you edit your /etc/fstab ?  If so, is there a typo in there
somewhere? I had this exact problem this morning, coincidentally enough.

Hope this helps.

Hi everybody,

After looking back at my /etc/fstab, everything seems ok to my eyes.
The problem happens when the script checkroot starts.  When it tries to
remount / in read-only to fsck it, I got a message like that
mount : bad option or / was is not mount (Something like that... I knew I
should take it in note).

Any idea?

You have options specified that do not apply to the kind of fs you are tring 
to mount. like specifying notail for ext2. Post your fstab, and we can all
look at it and help you.

I've had the same problem with xfs as / filesystem.
I removed the "notail" option in fstab and everything was fine.

Re: [gentoo-announce] Read Only file system.

[Martin]

Thanks to all for your help!  The notail option was my error.

Thanks again.

Regards.
